paradox of our times
The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings butshorter tempers, wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints. We spend more, but have less; we buy more, but enjoy less. 历史长河中，矛盾充斥在我们的周遭：楼房变高了，人的性情却急躁了； 道路变宽了，人的思想却狭隘了。我们花费的多了，拥有的却少了；我们购买 的多了，享受的却少了。 We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time.We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness. 我们拥有的房子更大了，家庭却小了；条件更便利了，时间却少了。 学衔多了，却缺少见识；知识增了，却缺乏判断力。专家多了，问题却没有少； 良药多了，健康状况也没好转。 We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom. We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. 我们酗酒，疯狂的吸烟，不顾一切的挥霍金钱。很少开怀大笑，开车一路狂飙， 常发无名怒火。熬夜直到很晚，起身满是疲倦，很少读书看报，看起电视没完， 极少祷告祈愿。我们使自己的财产倍增，价值却递减。 We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often. We've learned how to make a living, but not a life. We've added years to life not life to years. We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbour. 我们大侃特侃，很少仁爱友善，常怀仇恨积怨。我们学会了如何谋生，但不知如何生活；我们延长了生命的期限，却不是生活的期限；我们能够往返于地球与月球之间却不能够穿 过街道拜访新邻居。 We conquered outer space but not inner space. We've done larger things, but not better things. We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We've conquered the atom, but not our prejudice. 我们征服了太空，却征服不了自己的内心世界；我们的事业越做越大，但质量却没有提高。我们清洁了空气，却污染了灵魂；我们可以分离原子，却无法驱逐思想上的偏见. We write more, but learn less. We plan more, but accomplish less. We've learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less. 我们写得更多，学到的却更少；我们的计划更多，完成的却更少。我们学会了追赶时间， 却没学会耐心等待；我们生产更多的电脑用于存储更多的信息和制造更多的拷贝， 而彼此间的沟通交流却少之甚少。 These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes. 这是一个快餐食品和消化迟缓相伴的时代；一个体格高大和性格病态并存的时代； 一个追名逐利和人情冷漠相生的时代。这个时代有双收入，但也有更高的离婚率； 有装修华美的房屋，但也有更多残缺破碎的家庭。 These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill. 这个时代有了快速旅游，一次性尿布，有了任欲横飞的道德，一夜情，有了超重的身体，以及使人从兴奋走向静止，再走向自杀的药物。 It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stockroom.A time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or to just hit delete. 这是个陈列室的橱窗满满，而贮藏室空空的时代-----一个虚实并生的时代；这是个科技传递信息，你可以与大家分享其中见解，也可以随手删除的时代--一个我行我素的时代。 My advice to you is: 我给你的忠告是： Remember, spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever. 记住，花些时间与你爱的人们在一起吧，因为他们不能永远 陪在你身旁。 Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side. 记住，说些善意的话语对那些心存敬畏，对你尊敬有加的人吧， 因为孩童终将长大成人，不能留在你身边。 Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn't cost a cent. 记住，给紧挨着你的人来一个热情的拥抱吧，因为 这是你发自内心的给予他人的唯一财富，并且你不花一文。 Remember, to say, "I love you" to your loved ones, but most of all mean it. A kiss and a hug will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you. 记住，对你爱的人说“我爱你”，但最重要的是这是你的肺腑之言。 要知道，发自内心的一吻与一个拥抱可以修复心灵之创伤。 Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again. Give time to love, give time to speak, and give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind. 记住，握着他的手，珍惜着这一刻吧，因为终有一天他将了结尘缘，离你而去。 拿出些时间去爱，去表达，拿出些时间与他人分享你心灵中的宝贵思想火花吧！ AND ALWAYS REMEMBER: 永远要记住： Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away 衡量生命的不是你呼吸的次数,而是你屏止呼吸的时刻。

It happened that the cat met Mr. Fox in the woods. She thought, "He is intelligent and well experienced, and is highly regarded in the world," so she spoke to him in a friendly manner, "Good-day, my dear Mr. Fox. How is it going? How are you? How are you getting by in these hard times?" The fox, filled with arrogance, examined the cat from head to feet, and for a long time did not know whether he should give an answer. At last he said, "Oh, you poor beard-licker, you speckled fool, you hungry mouse hunter, what are you thinking? Have you the nerve to ask how I am doing? What do you know? How many tricks do you understand?" "I understand but one," answered the cat, modestly. "What kind of a trick is it?" asked the fox. "When the dogs are chasing me, I can jump into a tree and save myself." "Is that all?" said the fox. "I am master of a hundred tricks, and in addition to that I have a sackful of cunning. I feel sorry for you. Come with me, and I will teach you how one escapes from the dogs." Just then a hunter came by with four dogs. The cat jumped nimbly up a tree, and sat down at its top, where the branches and foliage completely hid her. "Untie your sack, Mr. Fox, untie your sack," the cat shouted to him, but the dogs had already seized him, and were holding him fast. "Oh, Mr. Fox," shouted the cat. "You and your hundred tricks are left in the lurch. If you been able to climb like I can, you would not have lost your life." 一只猫在森林里遇到一只狐狸，心想：“他又聪明，经验又丰富，挺受人尊重的。”於是它很友好地和狐狸打招呼：“日安，尊敬的狐狸先生，您好吗？这些日子挺艰难的，您过得怎么样？” 狐狸傲慢地将猫从头到脚地打量了一番，半天拿不定主意是不是该和它说话。最后它说：“哦，你这个倒霉的长着鬍子、满身花纹的傻瓜、饥肠辘辘地追赶老鼠的傢伙，你会啥？有甚么资格问我过得怎么样？你都学了点甚么本事？” “我只有一种本领。”猫谦虚地说。 “甚么本领？”狐狸问。来源：考试大 “有人追我的时候，我会爬到树上去藏起来保护自己。” “就这本事？”狐狸不屑地说，“我掌握了上百种本领，而且还有满口袋计谋。我真觉得你可怜，跟着我吧，我教你怎么从追捕中逃生。” 就在这时，猎人带着四条狗走近了。猫敏捷地窜到一棵树上，在树顶上蹲伏下来，茂密的树叶把它遮挡得严严实实。 “快打开你的计谋口袋，狐狸先生，快打开呀！”猫冲着狐狸喊道。可是猎狗已经将狐狸扑倒咬住了。“哎呀，狐狸先生，”猫喊道，“你的千百种本领就这么给扔掉了！假如你能像我一样爬树就不至於丢了性命了！” The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings, but shorter tempers; wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints; we spend more, but have less; we buy more but enjoy less. 我们这个时代在历史上的说法就是我们拥有更高的建筑，但是有更暴的脾气；我们拥有更宽阔的高速公路，却有更狭隘的观点；我们花费得更多，拥有得却更少；我们购买得更多却享受得更少。 We have bigger houses and smaller families; more conveniences, but less time; we have more degrees, but less sense; more knowledge, but less judgment; more experts, but more problems; more medicine, but less wellness. 我们的房子越来越大，家庭却越来越小；便利越来越多，时间却越来越少；学位越来越多，感觉却越来越少；知识越来越多，观点却越来越少；专家越来越多，问题也越来越多；药物越来越多，健康却越来越少。 We drink too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry too quickly, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom. 我们喝得太多，花钱大手大脚，笑得太少，开车太快，易怒，熬夜，赖床，书读得越来越少，电视看得越来越多，却很少向上帝祈祷。 We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often. We’ve learned how to make a living, but not a life; we’ve added years to life, not life to years. 我们常常夸夸其谈，却很少付出爱心，且常常心中充满了仇恨。我们学会了如何谋生，而不知如何生活。我们延长了生命的期限，而不是生活的期限。 We’ve been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet the new neighbor. We’ve conquered outer space, but not inner space; we’ve done larger things, but not better things. 我们登上了月球，并成功返回，却不能穿过街道去拜访新邻居。我们已经征服了太空，却征服不了自己的内心；我们的事业越做越大，但质量却没有提高。 Packaging A Person A person, like a commodity, needs packaging. But going too far is absolutely undesirable. A little exaggeration, however, does no harm when it shows the person's unique qualities to their advantage. To display personal charm in a casual and natural way, it is important for one to have a clear knowledge of oneself. A master packager knows how to integrate art and nature without any traces of embellishment, so that the person so packaged is no commodity but a human being, lively and lovely. A young person, especially a female, radiant with beauty and full of life, has all the favor granted by God. Any attempt to make up would be self-defeating. Youth, however, comes and goes in a moment of doze. Packaging for the middle-aged is primarily to conceal the furrows ploughed by time. If you still enjoy life's exuberance enough to retain self-confidence and pursue pioneering work, you are unique in your natural qualities, and your charm and grace will remain. Elderly people are beautiful if their river of life has been, through plains, mountains and jungles, running its course as it should. You have really lived your life which now arrives at a complacent stage of serenity indifferent to fame or wealth. There is no need to resort to hair-dyeing-the snow-capped mountain is itself a beautiful scene of fairyland. Let your looks change from young to old synchronizing with the natural ageing process so as to keep in harmony with nature, for harmony itself is beauty, while the other way round will only end in unpleasantness. To be in the elder's company is like reading a thick book of de luxe edition that fascinates one so much as to be reluctant to part with. As long as one finds where one stands, one knows how to package oneself, just as a commodity establishes its brand by the right packaging. 人的包装 人如商品要包装，但切忌过分包装。夸张包装，要善于展示个性的独特品质。在随意与自然中表现人的个性美，重要的是认识自己，包装的高手在于不留痕迹，外在的一切应与自身浑然一体，这时你不再是商品，而是活生生的人。 青年有着充盈的生命的底气，她亮丽诱人，这是上帝赐予的神采，任何涂抹都是多余的败笔，青春是个打个盹就过去的东西。 中年的包装主要是掩盖住岁月流过的痕迹。如果你依然能够享受丰富自信的生活并追求前沿的工作，你的气质定会独特不凡，风韵依然。 当生命之河一一经历了平原、高山和树林，老年人便会是美丽的。你的生活达到了一种宁静的境界，淡泊名利、与世无争。无需去染黑头发，因为那满头如学的白发正是一种仙境之美。 人该年轻时就年轻，该年老时就年老，这是与自然同步，这就是和谐。和谐就是美，反之就是丑。和老年人在一起就像读一本厚厚的精装书，魅力无穷，令人爱不释手。 只要你了解自己所处的境地，就知道该如何包装自己，正如拥有合适包装的商品会成为知名品牌。

但裕双仁： 这类游戏适合对世界地理、历史感兴趣的玩家.玩这类游戏最需要的能力就是脑补能力,说实在的,这几款游戏画面都不咋样,没有画面的地方只能靠脑补.两个小人在地图上你一枪我一枪对打有什么意思,需要你脑补成史诗级的战役,想象着为英雄的将军授勋封爵.你要脑补自己是中世纪狡猾的野心家或者虔诚的十字军战士;要脑补自己是发现时代伟大的航海家发现新航路或者是聪明的总督让共和国在大国间左右逢源;要脑补坐在华丽的宫廷里,和其他巨头的使节为了“维护”世界和平不断扯皮;或者脑补出应用的装甲师度过第聂伯河,击退了来犯的敌人,切断了补给获得了大战的胜利.脑洞够大玩这些游戏才能乐在其中,正因为这些特点,这游戏很小众,只能自嗨,不能和周围的朋友分享.
